Sunraku vs. Ravenous Snake

Sunraku vs. Ravenous Snake is a battle fought by Sunraku against Ravenous Snake. It takes place in front of the bridge connecting The Rampant Forest and Secondale after Sunraku finds himself trying to to get to Secondale but has to cross the bridge in which the Ravenous Snake is guarding.

Prologue
Sunraku finds himself in a forest. His movements feel just like in real life and he goes to test them. He opens the in game map, wondering where he is as usually in such games, the players start in a tutorial town for beginners. However, he doesn't realize that those with "Wanderer" origin start at a random point in the beginners' area. Sunraku sees that he is in The Rampant Forest, which is next to Firstia town. He then decides to head towards the town, while checking things around. Next he checks his stats, but is then attacked by a goblin. He equips his Mercenary Twinblades and easily defeats it with a single hit. He ends up increasing his level and the goblin drops Goblin Hand Axe. He hears something from the bushes and a Vorpal Bunny comes out attacking him. Sunraku manages to dodge its attack, but is surprised at how powerful it was. The Vorpal Bunny then attacks him again. Sunraku blocks the attack and lands a critical hit. The Vorpal Bunny then attacks once more, however as it keeps aiming for his neck, Sunraku is prepared and blocks and defeats it. He ends up gaining two levels from the bunny. He looks around if the bunny dropped its knife as it looked strong. However he ended up achieving a condition and learns Flash Counter, a new skill that gives bonus to counters from parry. Realizing he gains skills from his fighting style, he get excited at how many different styles he can try. At the same time, he also realizes that he haven't encountered any bugs so far, which is something unheard for a trash game. As he wants the bunny's kitchen knife, he goes to look for more Vorpal Bunnies. Sunraku ends up level up several more times and learns Spin Slash. He realizes that Vorpal Bunny is a rare enemy as it doesn't have a high spawn rate. After he defeats fifty Vorpal Bunnies, he finally obtains two Vorpal Choppers, which have the special effect of giving bonus to critical damage. He had obtained a few more abilities, but Screw Pierce seems the most useful, a quick strike with a compact weapon. Being level 12 now, he doesn't feel he will gain much more experience from the monsters here.

Prologue
Sunraki opens the map and realizes that he strayed pretty far from Firstia and is close to Secondale. To reach it however, he needs to cross a bridge, which is protected by an area boss monster, Ravenous Snake. The recommended level for the boss is level 10 with a party of 3 people. Guessing what type of attacks a snake can have, Sunraku then heads to fight it.Sunraku faces the Ravenous Snake area boss. He first decides to observe its attacks and activates Tap Step, giving him bonus to evasion. He easily dodges the snakes attacks. He guesses since its beginner's level boss, it shouldn't have one-shot kill attacks, altought since he is without an armor it will probably one-shot him anyway. He attacks it, but as the durability of his weapons was getting low, one of the blades ends up breaking. He switches to the Vorpal Choppers and prepares to land a Screw Pierce, however he snake ends up spitting on him something from its tail. He wonder what it was and a notification then shows up that he is poisoned and will be taking damage every ten seconds. Sunraku feels he underestimated the snake, however he had beaten more cheaper mechanics before. He calculates that he has about four minutes remaining. He had figured that this game doesn't land critical hits on random, but when you attack in an ideal way or hit a weak point. As the snake is covered in tough scales, its weak point should be its head. He aims for the head, but concludes its a hard to hit place. He then decides to make his own weak point and uses Screw Pierce to stab the snake and wound it. After that he proceeds to attack the wound, landing critical hits. However the snake doesn't die and pushes him away, while also heals the wound. Sunraku realizes that he was quite arrogant to think that this game would be easy compared to the trash game he played. The snake attempts to eat him, but Sunraku blocks the attack. He unequips one of his blades and grabs the snake's head with his free hand. He then lands a Screw Pierce on the snake's left eye, triggering a critical hit and killing the snake.

Aftermath
Sunraku gains 2 levels from the snake, reaching level 14. The snake also drops Python Scale and Python White Hair items. To his surprise however, he is still poisoned. He quickly looks if he didn't miss anymore items and quickly dumps all his new stats into stamina and agility and heads running towards the town to buy an antidote. However he realizes that he doesn't know where the shops are, so it will be better to register a respawn point first, however he doesn't know where that is too.
